Uttarakhand CM Tirath Singh Rawat with Usha Negi, chairperson of child rights body at a workshop on substance abuse on Tuesday DEHRADUN: Ripped jeans paves the way for societal breakdown and is a result of the “bad example” parents set for children, which also leads to substance abuse, chief minister Tirath Singh Rawat said at a workshop on substance abuse on Tuesday. “Kyanchi se sanskaar (culture by scissors) — showing bare knees, wearing ripped denim and looking like rich kids — these are the values being given now. Where is this coming from, if not at home? What is the fault of teachers or schools? Where am I taking my son, showing his knees and in tattered jeans? Girls are no less, showing their knees. Is this good? All of this, in a mad race of westernisation. While the western world follows us, doing yoga … covering their body properly. And we run towards nudity,” the newly-appointed chief minister said at the inaugural session of the two-day workshop organised by the Uttarakhand State Commission for Protection of Child Rights in Dehradun.
